Aligned with the government’s policy and the National Soft Power Development Committee’s strategy, this event showcases Thailand’s cultural richness while stimulating the local economy and enhancing the country’s reputation as a global Festival Hub. The festival is a highlight of the Thailand Winter Festivals 2024, themed "7 Wonders of Thailand", which brings together a variety of cultural, artistic, and festive activities across the nation. Minister of Tourism and Sports Mr. Sorawong Thienthong remarked, "The year-end is a special time for Thailand, filled with the joy of celebrations and an abundance of events nationwide. The Bangkok Illumination Festival 2024 beautifully highlights Thailand’s position as a World-Class Event Hub, combining vibrant artistry and cutting-edge innovation in night-time tourism. This event not only promises unforgettable moments for visitors but also underscores our efforts to stimulate economic growth and showcase the country’s creative potential." TAT Governor Ms. Thapanee Kiatphaibool added, "The Bangkok Illumination Festival 2024 is more than a celebration of light and art; it represents a vital step in elevating Thailand’s reputation as a global festival hub. By intertwining cultural richness with modern technology, this event revitalises Bangkok’s night-time economy and creates opportunities for local businesses to thrive. We are confident that this festival will leave lasting impressions and inspire visitors to discover the many wonders of Thailand."

As the festival mascot, Moo Deng will transform Bangkok into a playful, illuminated wonderland. Visitors are invited to "bounce" through the city’s nine chic landmarks, each filled with unique installations, dazzling light displays, and an electrifying atmosphere. Whether it’s dancing alongside DJ Deng, shopping with Madame Deng, or snapping photos with Dengzilla, this one-of-a-kind experience blends creativity, fun, and innovation to create a festive atmosphere like no other.
